Members Of The Pacific Postcards Team - Series 86

Welcome to the Pacific Postcards Team Meet and Greet. We have a great team that had start simply as an Etsy Team but has branched out into Artfire, G+, Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest. We would love for you to join are team and help promote New Artistically designed or reproduced postcards, collecting vintage and antique postcards, creating digital art, and anything to do with ephemera and vintage imagery.

First I would like to introduce myself, Colleen (Captain) and Frances (Leader) of the team:

"First a brief little introduction: I grew up a Midwest farm girl from Wisconsin but through a series of moments of self discovery I have since moved to California and live the city life in the Palm Springs area. I live in a lovely contemporary home where my husband and I have designed a small but very beautiful Japanese Garden.

Unfortunately, though, the contemporary look does not blend with my passion for vintage and antique Victorian froufrou. So I have created for myself a virtual world with my shops. I welcome you to my attic filled with all the treasures found and creations made especially for you..." ~Colleen Cornelius

"I create mixed media, collage, folk art, religious icons, jewelry with a twist, paintings & digital art. Frida Kahlo has long been my muse and some of my art is inspired by her colorful life and paintings. I also enjoy dressing up in costume for any occasion but especially for Day of the Dead, Dia de los Muertos celebrations and of course as Frida.Hunting for treasures at flea markets, thrift stores and antique shops is also a favorite past time and I often incorporate these objects into my art..." ~Frances Perea

Using Google Translate:
"In addition to graphic design work I nun graphic. As a child I was always drawing and manual work at school was my favorite subject.
Besides shaping I have another passion: I work as an actress at an entertainment agency that I have weekly assignments."

"Welcome to my little place on the web! I've been a dealer for over 10 years and I have many satisfied customers. My inventory includes vintage toys, glass, porcelain, vintage costume jewelry, and my specialty - Postcards! Mooncat (our Maine Coon) says come on in and explore! We have thousamds of items up - thousands more on the way! Stealth Kitty specials are on the way!" ~Kimberly

"As a retired teacher, I am enjoying working with vintage collectible items and appreciate their history and beauty. In the evenings I write and create sumptuous handmade items as well, both sewn and crocheted." ~Grammy D
